I never thought of myself as a scanner, but now I sit surrounded by half-finished projects, and I have no idea how I'll finish them. And some of these projects involve other people, so they can't just be pushed away for a couple of years; they have to be completed.

Three art projects. One just needs to be mounted. the other two need gluing, sewing and and hanging. Face it, the one with the sewing should be put away for two or three years. People are coming to my house. I want to spackle, texturize and paint two half walls. This project has been sitting unfinished for months. My novel and my novel is ongoing, and my garden is ongoing, but I'd like to clean up the brush piles and the really ugly parts. Then there's the jury duty. I want to keep an eye out for some indication that my letter got there and that I really am excused. Yes, I might have to show up in person. I can handle it if it's only one day. I need to find the name of my new doctor and make an appointment. I plan to change insurance and go back to my old doctor, but I can't do that until October. Meanwhile, with COVID and other issues, I feel I should do an initial exam with the new one just in case. It just feels wrong to ignore him and then ask for a doctor favor.
At church, I just got asked to serve as almost-a-deacon-but-not-really. Remember that class I took a month ago where I had two workbooks with a total of twelve to sixteen weeks of assignments, and an in-person class of be sensitive, don't drop the bread; don't spill the wine? Well, I"m was the only one dumb enough, I mean who cared enough to do the assignments, and our priest, who is legitimately swamped to the gills, really needs the help. We do have a deacon who will share the responsibility with me, but she's eighty years old with her own problems. Fortunately, she's an overachiever even at eighty years old. The job involves caring for people who are sick or have other problems. And our congregation is mostly elderly folks. (but it's a small church, thankfully) Kate and I don't have to do all the visits, meal delivery and trips to the hospital, etc.; we just have to make sure that someone does it.
If you haven't figured it out, I'm lazy. I'm used to a more vegetative life style. I'm also really good at forgetting things. Oy, vey!
Okay, done ranting. Wish me luck.
